Yes I am on there but as the name GIA (middle name) because I dont want my dysfunctional insane family to see my personal live on Facebook lol. I'm starting my liquids tomorrow...I ordered my favorite food as my last big meal tonight but ended up throwing it out because it was way too salty. Im gonna start on Premier Protein shakes tomorrow

Yep I'm also on the books for Dr. Illan on July 6th 🎉🎉. Haven't found anyone else having surgery on the same day as us @dolechild23. Maybe it'll be just us.

My preop diet starts tomorrow (Monday). I have to work Monday and Wednesday... not sure how productive I'm going to be considering all I'm going to be thinking about is my surgery... as well as being on liquids only. 😳

I think we are-we'll have our own little party then! I won't lie Carmella, I have become a little cranky with everyone. I'm surrounded by 4 boys that can eat anything & Im drinking broth and jello!

A forewarning is warranted. I'm having a mommy day today to relax! Actually I think all of the boys are scared and wanted to go fishing without me! Lol

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
